Match Report
by Norman Giller |
A last minute goal by
substitute Roberto gave Brazil a flattering victory in this opening match
in the United States Bi-Centennial Tournament. England dominated the match
for long periods, but their finishing lacked the accuracy of their
approach play. 'It was heart breaking to lost so late in the game.' Said
Don Revie. 'I am sure that any neutral observer would say that England
deserved at least a draw.'
